1640 A Deliberate Slap On His Face
The chancellor paused briefly before he nodded. “That’s right. What’s the matter? Do you know him, Prof Qiao?”
Qiao En tightened his grip on the thin sheet of paper as he connected the dots.
Recently, the Huo family name kept popping up in front of him because of Lu Xia.
After Lu Xia landed in their hands, she would probably betray him. It was probably the reason his laboratory came under attack today.
!!
Qiao En looked increasingly agitated.
It was no wonder out of all the laboratories in the block, his laboratory suffered the worst damage. This blatant attack on him was a warning.
This cheque was not some sponsors.h.i.+p from a generous man. Instead, it was a deliberate slap on his face.
They were capable of openly destroying his laboratory and then throwing money on his face. They not only despised him, but were also trying to tell him that the Huo family could get away with anything!
People with power and money were untouchable.
“Prof Qiao?” The chancellor felt scared looking at Qiao En’s face, so he called out his name loudly.
Qiao En kept thinking about the Huo family. After some time, he finally snapped out of his daze. He nearly ripped the cheque in his hands to shreds.
Qiao En loosened his hands slightly, but his face remained scary looking. Despite his knowledge, he could not say it out loud to the chancellor.
No one would believe him even if he tried.
Qiao En inhaled deeply. He could only swallow the insult and said, “I doubt you can find Lu Xia. Since they specially sent you the money, I’m sure they won’t hold us accountable for her actions. Don’t worry, Chancellor.”
The chancellor glanced at Qiao En and pondered briefly. He said, “Well, that makes sense too. However, we still have to talk to the student who had fallen into the water and give her an explanation.”
Qiao En did not want to continue on the subject. Instead, he stood up. “You can handle it. I still have to take care of the lab, so I can’t stay.”
The chancellor had no reason to continue chatting. Before long, he left.
After the chancellor was gone, Qiao En clenched his fists and finally could not resist slamming the table hard. He picked up the cheque from the table and ripped it to shreds.
